SPONSOR Spotlight The Clovis Chamber of Commerce is honored to host BIG Hat Days each year. We wish to thank our partners and sponsors for making this year’s BIG Hat Days better than ever. We are very excited to announce the new presenting sponsor of BIG Hat Days - Chukchansi Gold Resort & Casino. Chukchansi Gold Resort & Casino has been a fantastic community supporter of local events for many years, and we are very proud to have Chukchansi Gold Resort & Casino join the Clovis Chamber as the presenting sponsor of BIG Hat Days. “It’s our honor to be the new presenting sponsor for Big Hat Days, a Clovis tradition that has brought so much joy to the community over the past 83 years,” said Deann Kamalani, director of marketing at Chukchansi Gold Resort & Casino. “Upholding local heritage and culture has long-been a priority for Chukchansi Gold, which makes it even more fitting for us to be a part of this great celebration as it returns to the city.” You can find the Chukchansi Gold Resort & Casino booth located at the corner of Pollasky and Bullard Avenue. Donaghy Sales and Michelob ULTRA are pleased to be our exclusive BIG Hat Days and Clovis Fest beer sponsor. Donaghy Sales’ fantastic staff will make sure to have a cold beverage ready for all music lovers at our Michelob Ultra beer garden and live entertainment stage located at Bullard and Woodworth next to the Clovis Elks Lodge (21 and over please). Every year we have additional local businesses that like to be a part of BIG Hat Days. Realty Concepts is excited to be a community sponsor of the event. Please visit their booth right in front of the Realty Concepts building on Pollasky just south of 5th street. Also new this year we would like to welcome our new sponsor, European Wax Center-Clovis who will have a booth on the corner of 5th and Pollasky. Stretch 360 is also a new sponsor of BIG Hat Days and will be in an exciting location at Pollasky and 5th street. Stop on by and see their wellness products and receive a comple-
mentary chair massage. The Clovis Chamber has a long partnership with Pepsi who provides bottled soda, tea and water beverage booths throughout the festival. A portion of the proceeds will go to the local non-profit groups who operate the Pepsi booths. Please stop by their booths and say hello and grab an ice-cold Pepsi beverage. The Fresno/Clovis Convention & Visitors Bureau has been an invaluable partner of the Clovis Chamber with their dedication to offer support and resources as they market our majestic Fresno County to the entire country. In addition, we would like to thank Noble Credit Union, who is the title sponsor of the ClovisFest Hot Air Balloon Fun Fly and a BIG Hat Day Golden Boot sponsor. Like the Clovis Chamber of Commerce, The Clovis Rodeo Association has been a benchmark in the Clovis community for over 100 years by hosting the world-famous Clovis Rodeo the last weekend in April each year. We thank them for their partnership throughout the years with the use of their beautiful Rodeo grounds for our events. Putting on an event the size of BIG Hat Days takes the cooperation of the City of Clovis. Our sincere gratitude is extended to the Clovis Police Department, Clovis Fire Department, Clovis Utilities, the City of Clovis administration, the Clovis City Council and all other departments that help to make Clovis such a fantastic community. As we take over the streets of Old Town, we rely on the support and generosity of our fellow business community with the use of their parking lots and property. Thank you to Central Valley Community Bank, Educational Employees Credit Union, Cigars LTD and Book Barn for your cooperation and support. Letting our community know about BIG Hat Days is no small task. We rely on our media partners to spread the word. Thank you to KMPH Fox 26-CW 59, along with iHeartMedia, Moore Than SEO and the Clovis Roundup for keeping our
community up to date on Clovis Chamber events. Valuable friends of the Clovis Chamber, Alert-O-Lite, Clawson Motorsports, American Ambulance and Guardian Accounting are a tremendous help with making our event run smoothly by donating their time and services to the Clovis Chamber-Thank you.
